Vehicle engine stopped completely dead and was nearly rearended. Was not able to restart vehicle and was towed back to Volkswagen dealership. Volkswagen told me the high pressure fuel pump was bad and repair would cost $10,000 after a furious argument was told they would fix it. This problem has happened to many vehicles that have not reported it to NHTSA when are you going to put a stop to this major problem. Maybe when someone gets killed
